Re: TW: I can't stand it

The 45 min one would probably be easier because the other is closer to the city - more traffic!!

Things got worse this morning, my grandparents were over & my father was making breakfast but I'd already had some so he got super mad that I didn't want it, I just locked myself in the bathroom to try and block out the yelling but I could still here him say I was rude, he didn't want to look after me, a brat & all that stuff as my mum was trying to defend me. I expected that I would be more upset by it but I'm just numbing to everything, i can't even express any emotions any more. So overwhelming.

My mum, sister & I went for a drive and she mentioned maybe trying family counseling to try and figure things out & while I think that's a good idea & I think I need it, he isn't going to change so why bother?

Re: TW: I can't stand it

@annabethxchase im really sorry about this morning it’s really good you went for a drive, what were your grandparents thinking ?

I think family counselling would be really good ! i know you feel like it’s not going to change your “father” but it might be worth a shot ! have you spoken to your mum about your local headspace centre ?

Re: TW: I can't stand it

Hey @annabethxchase, I'm sorry that your morning wasn't very good, did you enjoy the drive? Family counselling sounds like a good idea, although it can be hard to believe that things will change, it might provide you with some options on how to handle family disputes, does your sister want to try as well?

Re: TW: I can't stand it

hey @annabethxchaseim sorry this is happening, i have been in a situation similar where the father didnt like me either and i was always in trouble and getting yelled at. thankfully my mum and him arent together any more.im really glad to hear your mum stuck up for you, i do hope something can be worked out as no one deserves that sort of treatment and if he doesnt like it then its his problem and hes the one that need to change.hugs
